Energy and Exergy

The term energy in the common sense is used in several ways. Here you can find a thermodynamical way of looking at energy.

The part of the energy that can be converted into useful work is called exergy. Exergy is a measurement of the quality of the energy.

So it is clear that one has to use energy in a smart way by minimizing exergy losses.

DLF Sustainable has a lot of experiences to optimize your application by minimizing the exergy losses, which will result in a higher effiency of your process. A good example is Combined Heat and Power (CHP), although it is necessary to keep thermal and power demand in balance.
